• DrivePrep - Delete C Partition Only: This partitioning module is designed to preserve pre-existing data
partitions on a target computer and use the space previously used by the C partition for the new image.
• DrivePrep - Delete No Partitions: This partitioning module disables all partitioning activity generated
by the ImageUltra Builder program and is used only in special cases with a Portable-Sysprep Image or
Hardware-Specific Image that contains all formatting and partitioning instructions.
• Windows XP Home Primary Partition: This partitioning module for use with Ultra-Portable Images that
use I386 base operating-system modules for Windows XP Home only. It deletes existing user partitions,
establishes a new single partition using all available space on the hard disk, formats the new partition, and
sets the new partition as bootable in preparation for installing the Windows XP Home operating system.
• Windows XP Pro Primary Partition: This partitioning module for use in Ultra-Portable Images that
use I386 base operating-system modules for Windows XP Professional only. It deletes existing user
partitions, establishes a new single partition using all available space on the hard disk, formats the new
partition, and sets the new partition as bootable in preparation for installing the Windows XP Professional
operating system.
• Windows 2000 Primary Partition: This partitioning module is for use with Ultra-Portable Images that
use I386 base operating-system modules for Windows 2000 only. It deletes existing user partitions,
establishes a new single partition using all available space on the hard disk, formats the new partition,
and sets the new partition as bootable in preparation for installing the Windows 2000 operating system.
• Windows Vista Primary Partition: This partitioning module is for use with Ultra-Portable Images that
use Vista base operating-system modules for Windows Vista 32 bit and 64 bit. It deletes existing user
partitions, establishes a new single partition using all available space on the hard disk, formats the
new partition, and sets the new partition as bootable in preparation for installing the Windows Vista
operating system.
• Windows 7 Primary Partition: This partition module is for use with Ultra-Portable Images that use
Windows 7 operating-system modules for Windows 7 32-bit or 64-bit. It deletes existing user partitions,
establishes a new single partition using all available hard disk space, formats the new partition, and sets
the new partition as bootable in preparation for installing the Windows 7 operating system.
Note: The five Primary NTFS Partition partitioning modules are for use with I386 base operating-system
modules only. Do not attempt to use these modules with any other type of base operating-system module.
For details about the Primary NTFS Partition partitioning modules in a map, see “Special considerations for
I386 base operating-system modules” on page 75.
Additional Note: A base operating-system module created from Microsoft ImageX does not need a
partitioning module.
You can also create your own partitioning modules to create one or more data partitions and use
combinations of partitioning modules in a base map to achieve various results. For detailed instruction on
preparing the source files for a partitioning module, see “Preparing source files for a partitioning module” on
page 141.
You can insert a partitioning module into a base map in either of the following ways:
• Insert the partitioning module in the right pane of the Base Map window at the root-entry level. You use
this implementation when you want the partitioning module to be used on all target computers that use
the map, regardless of what menu items are selected from the installation menus.
• Insert the partitioning module in the right pane of the Base Map window at a menu-item level. You use
this implementation if you want the use of the partitioning module to be contingent on the selection of a
menu item during the installation process. For example, one menu selection can result in deleting all user
partitions while a different menu selection can result in deleting the C partition only and preserving any
other data partitions that might exist.
